As if there weren't enough, and with the Super Bowl just around the corner....

Any of y'all who are feeling the pain of this shortage, just give me a yell and send enough postage money for two pounds of pasteurized processed recipe food product. I think that's how it goes, they might include the word "cheese" in there someplace. SteelersFan got a TWO-pack of this awful stuff for Christmas. Come to think of it, if you're really feeling the pain, send enough postage for four pounds.

Even for BiT, that's very cheesy.

MatiasNana just called me -- asked how SteelersFan was weathering the Velveeta shortage (as if she didn't know about the Most Valuable and Pricey Christmas present...), and I told her the same thing I told y'all -- cross my palm with enough silver (or green), and any personal shortages can be made to vanish very quickly.

She then opined that it was a marketing ploy.

The article I read made me think it was more a case of "it's a problem in NYC, so it must be a nationwide crisis." The shortages seemed to be in a couple of boroughs of NYC (Queens and Brooklyn, I think), but the stores in Jersey said they didn't have any problems.

Then again, Kraft's been marketing the hell out of the Velveeta and Ro-Tel queso dip recipe on TV, so maybe that's part of it.
